Le moment parfait pour se plonger dans les temps de l’Avent

Commenté le 27/11/2025

Réservation très facile via le site internet. Nous avons passé un excellent moment tous les quatre (dont le plus petit de la famille qui, du haut de ses 18 mois, découvre à peine ce qu’est « Noël »). Et je trouvais qu’une visite du Palais du Pain d’Epices était une belle façon de l’aider à appréhender la magie et la chaleur de cette période de fin d’année. Nous avons également décoré nos pains d’épices et c’est là que les yeux de nos enfants scintillaient le plus. Nous recommandons donc tous les quatre, à l’unanimité, cette activité.
